About Ticks<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Ticks are blood sucking parasites that attach to their final host (your cat) and can remain for several days. They have a three host lifecycle. Starting as an egg, they develop into larvae and feed off their first host, usually a rodent, squirrel or wild animal. From here, they become a nymph and attach to a second host, feeding for days or weeks. They eventually reach the adult stage and seek out your cat as their final host.[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”20″][nectar_image_comparison image_url=”4220″ image_2_url=”4201″][vc_raw_js]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[\/vc_raw_js][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”3888″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” animation_easing=”default” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”right” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” el_class=”negativetopmargin tickdesktop”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#ffffff” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”40″ bottom_padding=”10″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” zindex=”999999″ overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n
